I need to access my computer running nginx on port 8080, but I do not want to turn off the firewall. I know that I can allow application to connect, but I can not figure this out with nginx.
The binary is added to the "Firewall Options…" from /usr/local/Cellar/nginx/1.8.0/bin/nginx
I have also tried creating a code-signing certificate, but no luck.

I’m assuming this is nginx running on a Mac, but you’re not providing much details.
A dialog will appear asking you to grant the nginx process access to listen for incoming connections. You may need to configure port forwarding on your router as well.
